Chris has been my business and personal accountant since 2012. I can count on Chris to be positive, focused and fair about ensuring I pay the tax I should - without overpaying - and get it done in a timely manner. Chris is also great with advice on new ventures, new business finance and tax rules and ways to be more efficient. Highly recommended.

As a self employed consultant, Chris Hankin was my accountant for more than 10 years up until March 2020. I always found his service of the highest standards of efficiency, courtesy and professionalism. I was always kept up to date and informed of relevant tax and NI changes, accounts were presented and submitted with thoroughness and accuracy. Chris was always available by phone or email to answer questions about my tax situation. I would thoroughly recommend CMH Accountancy with the greatest of confidence.
